Weekend with Family

This past weekend was spent with family that I haven't seen together in a while. All the 12 cousins (on my mom's side) spent time catching up and celebrating the life of our lola. I do not know why we don't hang out that often, because when we do, it's pretty fun. I know most of us live in different states and so I think we should try to make it a habit to see each other besides on holidays. It was good smoking a cigar with my cousins after playing a game of poker. We all met up at Rodney's pad in Torrance. He's the eldest of the cousins and asked us to come over and hang out. Poker was fun because these guys play crazy, even the girls played so sometimes it would be hard to read the girls. They always go all-in and somehow win all the time, ha. Oh well, next time I won't play wild like I did last time. Our penalty for getting kicked out was singing a song by the person who took you out. So the song of choice was "Summer Nights", the Grease Theme song. They wanted a duet of me and Rodney, because we were the first ones out. I was a little hesitant at first, but then said what the heck... let's do this!

This was a good weekend to catch up with the family and pay my respects to my lola. I can't wait til this week ends, because we'll be going up north for Romeo's graduation.
